Sky Sheath Strike

Several seconds passed, yet nothing changed.

Where was Sky Sheath Strike? Why had it not descended yet?

Had he calculated the countdown wrong, or had those outside failed to receive news that he had fallen into the frozen lake?

Gu Shen noticed Han Dang raise his head. From beginning to end, Han Dang had not looked toward the surface of the frozen lake... Mental Affinity transcendents possessed extraordinarily keen intuition. The slightest abnormal movement from him would alert Han Dang.

"Why hasn't the Child descended yet?"

Gu Shen's mind was stretched to its limit as he considered the reason.

He noticed the surging black tide around the Azure King Authority Domain, as well as the familiar light falling from above... Those were the transcendent characteristics of Han Dang's Truth Domain.

He had always believed he was within the Azure King Authority Domain.

"If I am inside Han Dang's Truth Domain..."

"Then there is only one reason the 'Child' has yet to descend."

"It isn't that my countdown is wrong."

"It's that the flow of time in this domain differs from the Outside World!"

Jing Shan Yan's "death" contradicted the existence of the Azure King Authority Domain.

His countdown reaching zero yet the Child not descending was also a contradiction.

"All these contradictions ultimately point to Han Dang's domain. More precisely, to the second Rule derived within this domain."

Aside from someone like Chen Mei, who possessed time-slowing
